Rollercoaster: Round 11, 2008

by m0nty | June 3rd, 2008 | Comments : [201] | Categories: Dream Team, Rollercoaster, Super Coach.

Rollercoaster of love

A reminder of the premise of this regular feature: Rollercoaster follows the ups and downs of weekly price variations in salary cap competitions such as AFL Dream Team and Herald-Sun Super Coach. I will try to figure out when premium players have bottomed out and rookie players have reached their ceiling, two things which every successful fantasy coach needs to master to lock in the right trades at the right times.

Rollercoaster of love... down!Big Dippers

I said last week that you might want to wait until round 12 to get on Andrew McLeod, but with breakevens of 105 in DT and 125 in SC, this week might not be so bad either. Scores of 57/69 this week with Angus Monfries tagging him in the game against Essendon were at least somewhat of a recovery after the two shockers in the previous fortnight. It is a worry that he gets tagged every week, but this week the Crows play the Tigers who are without their primary tagger Kane Johnson. If you think Chris Hyde will get the job on McLeod then you’ll understand why I’m hot on him this week, especially in Super Coach: Hyde’s last three targets have been Gary Ablett jnr (135/164), Brent Stanton (64/92) and Adam Goodes (96/142). Expect McLeod to blow through his breakevens as the Crows spank another minnow team in their dream 2008 draw. The only fly in the ointment is that Adelaide’s draw gets considerably harder after Richmond with pretty much every top 8 side in a row… but I only ever considered McLeod a Super Coach prospect and he still should do well in that competition despite what seems to be a weekly tag.

Also last week, I recommended waiting another week on Nick Riewoldt. His price dropped again in all competitions after a 108/138 but his breakevens are down into the 60s this week. Don’t expect huge things out of him this week because the Bulldogs haven’t given up a DT ton to a KP forward this year, but he should be solid for 80-90 at least from here on in.

Coming off an unprecedented two years of 105+ averages in Dream Team, plus lifting his Super Coach average to 112 last year, Kane Cornes was targeted by many coaches as a mid-season upgrade target. The smart thing to do was to wait for the two scores from his Sydney games to cycle through - not surprisingly, his two lowest scores for the year - and that process is almost complete. With breakevens of 123/97 and year-to-date price drops of $69,500/$166,100 the time to do that trade is probably next week, after playing a Carlton side that has been surprisingly effective at dampening the scores of opposing midfielders in 2008… albeit he’s averaging 106 in his last four against the Blues.

Adam McPhee has been very disappointing so far given his top 10 finish in the backs last year, but his role in the Adelaide game has raised some questions about a possible exhumation of his fantasy value. Far from the return of Scott Lucas further hurting his value with less space in the forward line, it has actually led to him moving further up the ground and getting more link-up work. 12 kicks, four handpasses, 12 marks and three goals straight is a highly respectable return. Having dropped $104,000/$139,800 from his starting price and with breakevens of 57/32, he makes a sneaky upgrade target with considerable risk and considerable upside.

Rollercoaster of love... up!Loop De Loop

Austin Wonaeamirri, come back! Where has that goalsneak dynamo with the fistpump action gone? I know it’s a compliment when you’re in your first 10 games and the opposition coach puts a stopper on you just because you’re so valuable to the team, as Ross Lyon did with Sean Dempster, but it destroyed Wona’s fantasy momentum if not his real game momentum. Scores of 42/37 inflated his breakeven back up to his trailing average, meaning that he’s going to need another big gamewinning performance to get this cash cow to start milking again. The only consolation is that his spot on the senior list is most likely safe since Russell Robertson’s ruptured achilles put him on the LTI list.

Cyril Rioli, too, is starting to dry up in the cash cow stakes. Breakevens in the 70s are the result of his 46/27 against the Dogs. I have a bit more faith in Junior Boy, however, because he was looking like he might have hit the rookie wall back in the Collingwood game in round 7, where only some garbage time charity from Shane Crawford saved his day from complete calamity, but he rebounded with good scores in the next two games. The other reason I’m not selling him this week is that his next opponent is the Bombers who are the worst team in defending against small forwards, with Mathew Stokes, Eddie Betts and Paul Medhurst getting 120+ DT scores against them this year already.

Briefly, other players who look to have hit their peaks and/or already be on the way down: Kieren Jack, Leigh Harding, Tim Callan, Bernie Vince, Clint Bartram, Bachar Houli, Kurt Tippett, Greg Baum.

Nice summary Monty. Thanks !

I’ve been particularly burned by picking up McLeod about 4-5 rounds ago, but think I might stick with him for this round and see how he goes …

Anyone got an idea when Symes is gonna return ?


XztatiK Says: 8:03 pm, June 3rd, 2008

Symes is another 2wks away.

I think youve missed a BIG big dipper there monty but I’ll keep him to myself.


damo Says: 8:13 pm, June 3rd, 2008

monty, any idea how much lucas is going to drop in price even if he does get a ton this week?


m0nty Says: 8:18 pm, June 3rd, 2008

If Lucas get a ton this week he’ll go down by about $45,000, damo.


Seabohm Says: 8:42 pm, June 3rd, 2008

Greg Baum is a complete spanner


j0sh0 Says: 10:25 pm, June 3rd, 2008

mate
how bout shaw on the weekend, absolutely dismal!

robertssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!

still cannot believe kyle teams got up on the weekend


j0sh0 Says: 10:32 pm, June 3rd, 2008

also what are your thoughts on keneally monty?


pain Says: 10:32 pm, June 3rd, 2008

monty, please respond to my email, i’m sick of being blocked i dont even know what i did wrong???

was it because i thought ur site is getting soo big that u might be approached by google and convinced to sell out. i know u wont i’m sorry.

please unban a brother - t0mm0


Paul Says: 11:48 pm, June 3rd, 2008

Forgive my ignorance but who is Greg Baum?

As for Symes, I have carried on the bench for the past month and have had enough. I’m gonna downgrade to one of the baby eagles, havent decided which one yet. If you believe the reports he is 2 weeks away, you obviously havent been reading ‘Moon Boot’ 2-3 weeks for the past month. Add to that fact it has been widely stated that it is likely he return through the SANFL.

Josho: Kennelly is injury prone. Stay away.


XztatiK Says: 11:52 pm, June 3rd, 2008

kyle teams is alright, 19 trades in 10 rounds will get u the occasional 2000.


m0nty Says: 1:09 am, June 4th, 2008

Yeah sorry pain, your comments get picked up by Akismet (the spam blocking plug-in to my blog software). I’ll unblock them when I see them.


NoLimit Says: 1:11 am, June 4th, 2008

Hi, Guyz
Any guesses if Fevola will go down in price nxt week? N if so by much?


iceman Says: 9:43 am, June 4th, 2008

monty
how much work is involved in running this website?
its great wat u do 4 us footy lovers!
xoxo


Mr X. Says: 10:46 am, June 4th, 2008

They were never going to hit the eject button with Wonnemari, so I guess Robbo’s achilles actually saves Shane Valenti?


Gor Says: 11:03 am, June 4th, 2008

Chadley Cornes is on his way down too Monty, and he seems like a good upgrade for Brad “2 weeks away 4 weeks ago” Symes. Symesy will find it tough to crack the Adelaide side again i think anyway, with weirdos like Vince and MacKay doing well.

is that who you were talking about Xztatik??


Fred Says: 12:13 pm, June 4th, 2008

Sammy Mitchell is on his way down. not a idea to upgrade Palmer to Sammy in two weeks with their prices almost touching


Fred Says: 12:13 pm, June 4th, 2008

* not a bad idea :)


Fred Says: 12:41 pm, June 4th, 2008

Or even Lennard Hayes!!! this is a great game - its like the Stocktake sales at Myer. The bargains are there to be had boys


pain Says: 12:48 pm, June 4th, 2008

Thanks monty
expect a huge score from sam mitchell this week. last week with close to thirty disposals dominated with handballs and 5 free kicks against, he was never going to score high. against a lesser side he’ll rack up marks and not be frustrated, sorry fred but you’ve missed the boat.
p.s did u mean to say that u wanted to sell danny myers??
sorry bad joke
lots of love xoxo


Fred Says: 12:53 pm, June 4th, 2008

ok last one then i have to go back to work……Chris Knights


Gor Says: 1:06 pm, June 4th, 2008

haha fred.

what about bret thornton? the guys gonna plummet to around $220k-$240k and was hot early in the season. i held onto him during his injury and i think he can still do well in carlton’s backline (10 possies in the first quarter last round)


Gor Says: 1:17 pm, June 4th, 2008

also i’m gonna upgrade alipate carlile (reached his cash peak) to one of the following backs:
A. Mackie (382k), J. McDonald (327k), B. Goddard (317k)

which one out of them you reckon i should get?? Mackie has the second highest average of backs with 90. others average 80. is the extra 10 worth the extra 50-60k?


Fred Says: 1:26 pm, June 4th, 2008

Mackie had one big score (137) that bumped his average. Would rather go Stiffy J in 2 weeks or Mcleod next week


m0nty Says: 2:19 pm, June 4th, 2008

Gor: if you traded Cornes out and want to get him back in then you’re a dud, IMO. Waste of two trades. Having said that, if you haven’t got him, of course you need to get him back in, though I’d wait until his injury goes away.


Gor Says: 3:51 pm, June 4th, 2008

Geez Monty, you’re pretty quick to call me a dud based on an ignorant assumption. I never gave off the notion that I previously had Chad already so i have no idea where you got that from.

and Fred: appreciate the advice except i already got Stiffy and i’m not going near McLeod. True about Mackie’s 137, but IMO if he’s got the potential to explode like that it gives him extra value anyway. I might go Goddard so it leaves me more money to upgrade Palmer later.

Also Monty, I’m not concerned about Cornes’ hand. I don’t think it’s affecting his play that much (if it was leg-related it would be worse), and his tackling numbers are the same as before the injury.


tom Says: 3:54 pm, June 4th, 2008

lol vintage monty…poor, poor Gor got pwned.
if you were looking to upgrade xavier ellis within about 10g of him ie 270g…who would you go for??
question for either monty or gor


tom Says: 4:00 pm, June 4th, 2008

also just got rid of michael gardiner….finally
good thing is i got troy simmonds who will run amok against the crows this saturday. today his manager said he was pleased to join my team and knows he will make a positive difference.

can anyone believe gardiner was westcoasts number 1 ruckman ahead of cox


Fred Says: 4:00 pm, June 4th, 2008

ohhhh bugger - i started typing to give my opinion then realised my opinion wasnt wanted.


Jmoney23 Says: 4:05 pm, June 4th, 2008

Iceman great call man! M0nty is the coolest guy ever man. Unblock Pain tho coz hes got a good footy brain my man… Block Xztatik for being G@Y.


tom Says: 4:06 pm, June 4th, 2008

sorry fred you can reply too, just thought you were back at work :P
fire away


Gor Says: 4:09 pm, June 4th, 2008

yeah suddenly i’m the number 2 opinion guy around here??? freddy is good too Tom!

better keep up my rep then….

TOM: i reckon Ellis is just as good, if not better, than the other guys from $277k and under. the only guy worth a look there is Gilbee ($277,900) who’s having a crap year but is capable of pulling in good scores when he’s on. get him if you feel like taking the risk but otherwise keep Ellis cos there’s no real point in getting rid of him.

Regards
- the guy who got “pwned”


Dylan Says: 4:09 pm, June 4th, 2008

hey paul if u have been reading symes has got his moon boot off last time i checked and now his got to get his fitness up. I would not have held onto him at all but i think he will find his spot back within the side after i think a week or 2 in the sanfl.


tom Says: 4:13 pm, June 4th, 2008

Cheers Gor, i may hold him coz i have Gilbee too…He’s so frustrating pulled in a good one this week though.
I have some money saved for a rainy day so i might use it to get in Chad Cornes next week. With a break even of 128 you would want to wait another week surely.


Fred Says: 4:13 pm, June 4th, 2008

First of all i wont mention anything about having Gardiner instead of a Simmonds from the start of the season. Also i wont mention anything about trading mid week :)


Dylan Says: 4:14 pm, June 4th, 2008

hey tom when michael gardiner was at west coast he was a gun. he used to be 1 of the best rucks around. i think his lost his skill though now. and for ellis how about mcleod?


tom Says: 4:16 pm, June 4th, 2008

I think he screwed up his head when he was in that drunken car crash actually Dylan. Westcoast delisted him and i dont think he cares anymore. But year he was one of the best thought he’d recapture the form but didn’t. Thanks mate


tom Says: 4:18 pm, June 4th, 2008

Fred: By traded him in, i mean i did the maths and will bring him in friday night. Mate i’m not that stupid. But i was stupid enough to have him in the first place….


Jmoney23 Says: 4:21 pm, June 4th, 2008

I had simmonds from start and cox. Thats why im 150th overall in DT!


Gor Says: 4:23 pm, June 4th, 2008

again with McLeod. dunno why people wanna get a guy that gets tagged every week and that everyone has got anyway. if he drops to under 200k i’ll consider him

i’d rather have lachlan hansen than mcleod!


actually wait no i take that back. lachlan hansen is the worst EVER.


tom Says: 4:25 pm, June 4th, 2008

*tugs collar*
no i didn’t have lachie hanson at the start at all
*cough*


Jmoney23 Says: 4:26 pm, June 4th, 2008

Johncock or Taigh Kennely was way better then Mcleod.. If you got mcleod over them at the start u would be stupid


Fred Says: 4:26 pm, June 4th, 2008

wow someone woke up Gor


Jmoney23 Says: 4:29 pm, June 4th, 2008

I had hansen at the start. It wasnt too bad he got one game. i had Armitage aswell at the start and hes a gun.


tom Says: 4:30 pm, June 4th, 2008

lol jordan robertson, hansen hasn’t got a game yet


tom Says: 4:36 pm, June 4th, 2008


what are the footy pictures at the top of?
swear i saw Max or Jarrad Rooke lol


m0nty Says: 4:37 pm, June 4th, 2008

I wasn’t having a go at you Gor, I said “if” you sold Cornes. Which you didn’t, so it’s all good.


Gor Says: 4:39 pm, June 4th, 2008

right before lockout i wanted to change hansen to ibbotson but i couldn’t get through. it got to me so bad when ibbotson got that 100. so after that i had to trade out hansen for ibbotson, mainly for peace of mind.

and fred, this is the first time in ages my posts have actually been working so i’m just making the most of it!


tom Says: 4:39 pm, June 4th, 2008

admit it monty, u pwned him


j0sh0 Says: 4:42 pm, June 4th, 2008

what are you thinking of the Western Australian dynamo who is playing in the u18 comp at the moment and is predicted to be the number one draft pick?


pain Says: 4:44 pm, June 4th, 2008

i think it was lucky crows got dangerfield or he would’ve gone number one.
maybe lucky isn’t the right word but it wasn’t unfortunate


Dylan Says: 4:48 pm, June 4th, 2008

Jmoney23 i think mcleod and kenelly r about the same in dt. at least mcleod has played all of his games this year. I think mcleod will get back to form and start beating taggers.


Gor Says: 4:51 pm, June 4th, 2008

na i know the “if” was there Monty, took me by surprise is all cos i didn’t say i had Chad to start with. ahhh who cares.

i actually wonder about where all the footy pics come from too

this thread about the rollercoaster has gone off track, so to speak… (ha… ha… ha)


pain Says: 4:56 pm, June 4th, 2008

Its even further off now thanks to your horrible pun Gor
haha nah it was ok
where are people ranked overall in DT and what ever happened to the guy who won last year?


shelds Says: 5:03 pm, June 4th, 2008

Gor, Fred or Monty, or whoever it may concern so people dont feel left out…
who would you recommend as a sell for tipett.he’s sitting on my bench, i need to get rid of him


Fred Says: 5:03 pm, June 4th, 2008

Maybe off track but im glad we have some banter back on this site. Its good stuff. Its been a bit too quite lately


pain Says: 5:07 pm, June 4th, 2008

haha fred…
do u and gor work on this site with the main man or do you just come here often


Fred Says: 5:08 pm, June 4th, 2008

Im not even going to attempt to answer that. I and suggest a few others are in the same boat. I just read Freako’s mailo thingo and he suggests (OMG) that Wona and Tippett should be sold. The thing is thats obvious - atleast with Tippett anyway but who do wereplace Tippett with? Valenti for a couple of games if he gets picked this week? That doesnt help much for the long term


Fred Says: 5:11 pm, June 4th, 2008

Just a slow day at work Pain


Dylan Says: 5:21 pm, June 4th, 2008

my overall ranking atm is 5,500 what is everyone elses?


Chris Says: 5:48 pm, June 4th, 2008

I dont know how many trades you got left shelds, or anyone else thinking of trading, but id be careful trading like tippett or anyone else just for the sake of trading, unless you’re scoring donuts (on the field, not on the bench that is).

Trades become so vital at the end of the season and at this mid point its easy to plow through a few for no real gain.

Just my thoughts but I’m sure some of the other guys would agree.

And amen fred to the slow day at work, haha.


the eagle Says: 6:39 pm, June 4th, 2008

hey monty,fred n gor or ne one with advise ive got jack, tippett, gamble and nathan thompson in my squad and want to up grade at least one of them with 200k in the bank. was thinkin swap jack for joel corey and down grade thompson this week seein as they play the cats and upgrade tippet next week anythoughts appreciated


Mitch Says: 6:44 pm, June 4th, 2008

Monty,

I have Wonna and have 250k left in the bank should i trade or keep (supercoach)


the eagle Says: 7:19 pm, June 4th, 2008

hey mitch id think trade all depending on how many trades uve got left


the eagle Says: 7:27 pm, June 4th, 2008

sorry ive also got browne from calton in my mids would it b worth gettin cotchin for jack and upgrading browne when he peaks?? who would b best buy in the forwards now? richo, stevey j?


j0sh0 Says: 8:33 pm, June 4th, 2008

i reckon big richo, stevey j is certain 2 go down in value this week after his effort last round. Richo is impressing me around the field this year, a gun of the afl


pain Says: 9:27 pm, June 4th, 2008

stevie j will drive you insane if you get him


Gor Says: 9:28 pm, June 4th, 2008

don’t we all love slow days at work, but now it’s made me come back on at home to see what else is goin on. here’s some more attempted advice

shelds: personally i’m gonna downgrade Tippett to Valenti this week. i’m just hoping he’ll step in for Robbo

the eagle: i’d downgrade Jack, give Browne a run, and then upgrade Thompson. there’s a lot of forwards to choose from but it depends what kind you want. i’d pick Didak over Richo, he’s leading the league in kicks and is cheaper. Chapman’s worth a look at $377k too. try and choose a player not many other people have tho


pain Says: 9:31 pm, June 4th, 2008

Gor, why would you chose a player not many people have?? Do not think it matters


pain Says: 9:39 pm, June 4th, 2008

MONTY!!!!!!!!!!!
what are those pictures of in the top banners?
its driving me crazy


j0sh0 Says: 9:51 pm, June 4th, 2008

hi


j0sh0 Says: 9:58 pm, June 4th, 2008

hey monty
do u have a job mate? or just run this site?


XztatiK Says: 9:58 pm, June 4th, 2008

Damn I missed a lot today being blocked from the school computers lol. Anyway, yeah I agree Josho, It’s all down for StevieJ with a 31 BE.


j0sh0 Says: 10:00 pm, June 4th, 2008

ooh man, u wait and see this week with stevey, i will be the one laughing next week mate


t0mm0 Says: 10:04 pm, June 4th, 2008

stevie WONT EVEN get anywhere NEAR his break even


XztatiK Says: 10:04 pm, June 4th, 2008

Chad probs wont play boys. He said that he cant perform up to standard with the glove on but playing without it would mean he could shatter all the pins and stuff so he’s in doubt.
btw Monty I’m one of the duds who traded out Chadley and plan on gettin him back (for about 50,000 less).


XztatiK Says: 10:11 pm, June 4th, 2008

I’m feelin Stokes at 317 if Browny doesnt play.


j0sh0 Says: 10:19 pm, June 4th, 2008

bahahahahhaha thats good trade value! thats dreamteam herocy


XztatiK Says: 10:20 pm, June 4th, 2008

For those who were wondering how the hell Jmoney23 could be 150th, he’s actually 936th, pretty sh!t eh!


t0mm0 Says: 10:22 pm, June 4th, 2008

I’m assuming this is for Burton’s current situation Mrs X? I’m going to leave him on the bench and see how well Stewie Dewie’s Hammie goes…
How about other people


j0sh0 Says: 10:22 pm, June 4th, 2008

i think someone is jealous, just cos jrob is an absolute gun at dreamteam


t0mm0 Says: 10:29 pm, June 4th, 2008

yeah with what josho was saying monty…do you have a job or is this is?
this would be one winner of a job


XztatiK Says: 10:34 pm, June 4th, 2008

I’d rather vhave Daniel Motlop’s job kicking easy goals and having them called the best goal of all time by Dwayne Russell. didnt rate that goal.


shelds Says: 10:36 pm, June 4th, 2008

it was probably top 10 goals ever and you dont rate it?
are you sick in the head mrs x?


トム Says: 10:42 pm, June 4th, 2008

XztatiK Says: 10:43 pm, June 4th, 2008

Are u gay all he had to do was roll it with the outside of the boot it was always gonna come back. It’s so freakin easy even Akol could do it on the oval today.


j0sh0 Says: 10:43 pm, June 4th, 2008

i didnt rate it that high, i reckon dale thomas’s last round or something was better! motlop is aboriginal, it is expected that he kicks goals like that man


t0mm0 Says: 10:45 pm, June 4th, 2008

great to see japanese people getting into the forum. haha or should it be what the hell is a japanese person doing on the forum


j0sh0 Says: 10:46 pm, June 4th, 2008

has anyone got a pocket japanese-english dictionary, i seem 2 have lost mine


t0mm0 Says: 10:48 pm, June 4th, 2008

is everyone else in bed?
thought this was a footy forum site we wanna talk footy


XztatiK Says: 10:49 pm, June 4th, 2008

Blake Caracella u were a gun man great to see u here.


t0mm0 Says: 10:52 pm, June 4th, 2008

hmmm japanese people and mrs x talking about blake caracella…might check the forum tomorrow, see what type of trades people are making


XztatiK Says: 11:05 pm, June 4th, 2008

Only way you’ll know what to do with your team Tommo.


Fred Says: 7:57 am, June 5th, 2008

Kinda glad i went to bed early last. Didnt miss much.


Gor Says: 10:09 am, June 5th, 2008

haha this post has gone crazy. it’s gonna hit 100

XztatiK, you gotta be kidding when you say you “didn’t rate” Motlop’s goal. you have to admit it was better than your average goal, yeah?

also i think you’re talking crap about Chad not playing. he said he was gonna be careful with it, not miss games


Nick Says: 10:28 am, June 5th, 2008

Brent Harvey is cheap. $344,700 87 BE. AVG 90ish.

In a game where it seems like you pay $50,000 per 10 point increase in average score, he seems like a consistent performer.

Can you trust a Roo though?


tommo Says: 10:58 am, June 5th, 2008

Come on GOR…read the paper today.
Chad reckons the finger is hindering him and he may cut it off even. Me thinks he will rest this week and split round to get it right


Shelds Says: 10:59 am, June 5th, 2008

Does monty even use this site anymore or just let us run amok on it?


Pain Says: 10:59 am, June 5th, 2008

Morning guys…are you serious about chad cornes tommo?


j0sh0 Says: 11:00 am, June 5th, 2008

ooh no, 100 posts, look out google take over!


pain Says: 11:00 am, June 5th, 2008

The pictures in the banner are of the Kardinia Cats, a community football team I help out wiht occasionally. The coach is my uncle.

And no, I don’t have any other job at the moment. FanFooty is it!


t0mm0 Says: 6:04 pm, June 5th, 2008

monty does care
you hero thanks for answering
i hear people saying that the name “monty” is now more recognisable than the name “tom from my space”


JB Says: 6:11 pm, June 5th, 2008

thats mad monty, so u get all the money u need from the adds on the site? u will be a millionaire soon haha


t0mm0 Says: 6:13 pm, June 5th, 2008

haha roberts no dew so i went kennedy for morton lucky he’s playing…seven trades left cannot believe no valenti still


m0nty Says: 6:15 pm, June 5th, 2008

Not quite a millionaire!


JB Says: 6:18 pm, June 5th, 2008

not long now though monty haha
how was ur day away from fan footy?


t0mm0 Says: 6:21 pm, June 5th, 2008

is this your first blog with 100 monty?

you just say the word and we’ll keep these 100 ers coming if it helps with the money


becksy Says: 6:29 pm, June 5th, 2008

hey monty is there an injury update page on ur site, i cant seem 2 find a good website showing all the injury updates of all the players


Chris Says: 6:50 pm, June 5th, 2008

afl site is prolly the best and easiest for injury news becksy.

Who should i pick up, s johnson, chappy or aker for my forward line? leaning towards johnson cos he’s got a nice BE, along with aker, but aker can be unpredictable for DT i reckon. except akers been selected less than johnson


becksy Says: 6:53 pm, June 5th, 2008

i reckon s johnson, aker is soo unpredicatablei haha i wouldnt guarantee another 160 from johnson though but he should be scoring consistant tons, low breakeven as well ;)


t0mm0 Says: 6:54 pm, June 5th, 2008

wouldn’t go aker my man
then again stevie j is just as inconsistent ask monty!!
why wouldn’t u go a didak or a pavlich


Chris Says: 6:54 pm, June 5th, 2008

or maybe even medhurst or dale thomas


pain Says: 6:57 pm, June 5th, 2008

best site for injury news is http://www.superfooty.com.au it always has the injury list down the bottom. but i hate those bastards who run the herald sun

mOnty, our main man, reckon you should do a big midweek injury list coz everyone wants one. then if u googled “afl injury list” fanfooty would come up. surely that would add to those millions you’re earning atm!!


Chris Says: 6:59 pm, June 5th, 2008

actually i got more cash than i thought so i could afford didak, i dont have buddy tho either so maybe i should just go him


jOshO Says: 7:03 pm, June 5th, 2008

im thinking i mite get Nick Naitanui in the DT this week, wat r ur thoughts? worth it?


tOmmO Says: 7:05 pm, June 5th, 2008

yeah didak is a lot more consistent than stevie and aker…that is when he’s not reported or internally suspended.

jOshO copying my nic…


Frank Says: 7:26 pm, June 5th, 2008

Im in the same boat as you chris.
I’ve already got pav and franklin.
Thinking between, SJ , chapman, didak or medhurst what you lads think??


Chris Says: 7:30 pm, June 5th, 2008

yeah its a tough one, they’re all pretty good, but ive gone didak in the end, only cos never know with hammy injuries (see stuart dew), and it took the cats a while to get chappy back in, dont want a recurrence.

now just gotta work out captain…lets hope rawlings goes to corey and not gaz


tOmmO Says: 7:32 pm, June 5th, 2008

great call on rawlings chris and yeah i reckon chappy is still a chance to pull out again this week. didak is probs the money man at the moment


Coxy Says: 7:33 pm, June 5th, 2008

im loving the comments from JB,becksy, iceman,j0sh0, t0mm0, tommo, pain and that japanese bloke.

I dont like that xztatick guy though.


tOmmO Says: 7:35 pm, June 5th, 2008

what about shelds?

coooooooooooooooooooooooooooxyyyyyyyy
who are u putting captain?
i’m going to ur stinkhole of a homestate to see friday night footy tomorrow haha


Dylan Says: 7:35 pm, June 5th, 2008

hey chris is i was u i would go for chapman his been like in the top 5 dt players for the past 2 or 3 years his always getting a score to be happy with.


tOmmO Says: 7:37 pm, June 5th, 2008

i dont even reckon he’ll get a hundred this week dylan…


jOshO Says: 7:44 pm, June 5th, 2008

cooooooooooooooooooooooooxy
glad u could make it


Coxy Says: 7:47 pm, June 5th, 2008

garry ablett of course.who u got captain?
oh yeah tommo your going for basketball ey.
im thinking about trading hawkins out this week, i have 7 trades left is it worth it? what do you reckon tommo, josh if your there?


jOshO Says: 7:52 pm, June 5th, 2008

tommo exitted the convo
i wouldnt trade out the tomohawk, if he is on the bench i would leave him, we r only halfway through the season, ur gonna need trades left in the latter stages of the season


tOmmO Says: 8:01 pm, June 5th, 2008

tommahawk got dropped this week coox
probs would trade him out if u can afford to


XztatiK Says: 8:15 pm, June 5th, 2008

piss off Coxy


XztatiK Says: 8:16 pm, June 5th, 2008

just coz im a better tagger than Kane Cornes, it’s the only way I can contribute in Wogball.


XztatiK Says: 8:18 pm, June 5th, 2008

jOshO Says: 8:20 pm, June 5th, 2008

no one wants 2 see that fag shit site, kane is not a tagger


.pain Says: 8:25 pm, June 5th, 2008

did anyone else put faith in J.Morton this week?


P4IN Says: 8:26 pm, June 5th, 2008

Did anyone put all their faith in J.Morton???


r0berts Says: 8:27 pm, June 5th, 2008

its a good site man.


Chris Says: 8:27 pm, June 5th, 2008

Agreed dylan, chappys been a gun time and time again, but his confidence to push that little bit harder for a mark or contest could be a bit low the next two weeks if he’s nursing a hammy, if he plays at all like tOmmO said.


XztatiK Says: 8:31 pm, June 5th, 2008

J-Money is in t0mm0, just wonderin whether him or J.Kennedy will go next week.


P4IN Says: 8:31 pm, June 5th, 2008

Chris how are you mate?
hows ur team? captain this week and how many trades left?


XztatiK Says: 8:35 pm, June 5th, 2008

SAC Says: 9:29 pm, June 5th, 2008

SAC Says: 9:31 pm, June 5th, 2008

. . . saclords men


XztatiK Says: 9:31 pm, June 5th, 2008

umm sam mitchell and captain kirk play football and im fair sure that’s not the same sport were doin in PE.


jOshO Says: 9:31 pm, June 5th, 2008

suss the action on fan footy now, i think monty is angry cos i called him ugly :(


Brady Says: 9:32 pm, June 5th, 2008

Geez….a lot of comments now.


XztatiK Says: 9:32 pm, June 5th, 2008

P4IN Says: 9:35 pm, June 5th, 2008

XztatiK Says: 9:38 pm, June 5th, 2008

See Josh I told u I was a better tagger than Kane, better than Ling even! Saclord’s still pissed off at me and I tagged him 6 hours ago


P4IN Says: 9:40 pm, June 5th, 2008

almost as long ago as the last on topic post…or interesting post


jOshO Says: 9:42 pm, June 5th, 2008

geez, a bit off topic now!
lets get back onto AFL! roberts, wat were u thinking changing the subject? if i was monty i would block u rite now!


XztatiK Says: 9:44 pm, June 5th, 2008

Footy Show in 5mins I’m abandoning the Blog. BRING BACK SAMMY!!!


P4IN Says: 9:49 pm, June 5th, 2008

this would be better if monty just gave us straight out question answer advice. i love the guy and site but might have to switch sites


XztatiK Says: 9:50 pm, June 5th, 2008

Ok I’ll get us back on topic, I think Glen Chivers has reached the peak of his rollercoaster ride… thoughts?


P4IN Says: 9:57 pm, June 5th, 2008

who is Glen Chivers? and speaking of rollercoaster rides, i’m gunna make a huge statement and say that Stevie J will always score lower than this round from now on.Huge statement i know


jOshO Says: 10:00 pm, June 5th, 2008

i think u should start talking about players, isnt chivers just the guy that collects the balls at trainings and scraps the mud off the players boots?


P4IN Says: 10:18 pm, June 5th, 2008

yeah he has peaked just like this forum


Chris Says: 10:49 pm, June 5th, 2008

fan footy forum, $360,800, av: 82, last round 41, be 137….definitely peaked haha


jrod Says: 11:40 pm, June 5th, 2008

Traded in franklin for dew, but am now pondering if its worth trading nathan brown (pies) for mcleod or wait another week for mcleod to go down? With his break even 125 in SC i would have thought this was reasonable?


XztatiK Says: 11:44 pm, June 5th, 2008

jrob?


jrod Says: 11:46 pm, June 5th, 2008

huh? Xzibit wannabe?


Chris Says: 11:47 pm, June 5th, 2008

wait another week, even if he comes good this week hes unlikely to do anything but fall in price. on the contrary, brown is up against the dees and should go well and therefore go up in price so id hold out and do it next week jrod


jrod Says: 11:50 pm, June 5th, 2008

Yeah thats along the lines of what i was thinking, cheers Chris. Everyone i speak to is getting off kruezer, i’d be heading along the lines that surely ratt’s would be toying with the thought that its time to give the kid a week off.


Dylan Says: 8:45 am, June 6th, 2008

hey im going to get rid of tippett but i dont no which rookie to go for i want to pick 1 that will most likly get the most games out of the lot. would that be valenti or morton or someone else?


iceman Says: 10:17 am, June 6th, 2008

only 22 posts away from the illustrious 200!!! the forum is definately going to go up in value, am i right chris? i also agree, what kind of name is Xztatik? tippet has easily peaked, morton is playing well, is valenti in the team this round?


Frank Says: 11:57 am, June 6th, 2008

Hey lads i need to downgrade houli this week to get some coin and im thinking of getting Armfield from the blues. That will pretty much give me an extra 200K to play with.What are your thoughts on this?? Any other players i should look at.
Cheers


Frank Says: 12:12 pm, June 6th, 2008

Valenti isn’t in the team this round. If you need someone to get points this week id def go for morton


Dessie Says: 2:28 pm, June 6th, 2008

Ok experts: Of Hill, Tippet, Gamble and Hawkins, who is going to be the least valuable going forward?
Tippett has a game this week, Hill is on the extended, Hawkins is and emergency and Gamble is nowhere to be seen.
Who would you trade? Gamble has good stats, when he plays and I really don’t know what the chances are of that happening anytime soon.

Any advice?


Chris Says: 3:29 pm, June 6th, 2008

My advice is all of them have peaked, but id say tippett will get the most games, although prolly wont return any scores that’ll set the world on fire. Hawkins and gamble are gonna find it tough to break into a close to full strength cats, however i would say hawkins will come back in eventually as i think he’s a long term prospect for the cats. but like you said, gamble will get better scores when he plays…just not sure if/when that’ll be.
josh hill has peaked, but he will be first person in if injury hits dogs id say.
just my 2 cents


Xzibit Copied Me!! Says: 4:09 pm, June 6th, 2008

Easy there jrod i was just wondering if u were Jrob not payin out ur name.

Now I know Dr.DreamTeam on AFL.com.au probably isnt the most reliable source but in his article he mentioned Daniel Cross being injured. Has anyone else heard that coz I def havent


Dessie Says: 4:16 pm, June 6th, 2008

Thanks Chris,

I too agree that they have all peaked. I need to get any points I can going forward, so I guess I’ll have to stick with Tippett. I would guess Gamble would then be the odd man out as he appears the least likely to get a run.

How many more weeks do you think Morton has in the Hawks line up before returning players sent him off?

How sure is Stewart on Port to be getting a game every week? He is on the extended this week.

I need to decide if I risk it with Hill and Tippett this week (I have a weaker opponent) or if I use a trade on Morton (most likely) or hold out for Valenti, who should be getting a consistant game soon. I would then have about $440,000 to play with if I were to trade Hawkins in the near future.

What do you think?


Xzibit Copied Me!! Says: 4:23 pm, June 6th, 2008

Gamble for Morton Dessie, I’m doing the same thing this week.


Dessie Says: 6:12 pm, June 6th, 2008

SOunds like a plan. I was leaning towards it and can’t pass up the $$ theat Morton should bring.

Good luck this week.


Xzibit Copied Me!! Says: 6:29 pm, June 6th, 2008

u too Dessie.

Monty can u tell me Kane’s record against West Coast (Judd)?


XztatiK Says: 12:16 am, October 11th, 2008
